Will be sending positive thoughts your way on your journey.

How many in your chase crew do you have now?

Someone with a sailboat would be really key. You could stay on the water most of the time. Using the sail boat as a mother ship.

Post your safety/first aid gear list if you are willing.

All kidding aside, Your trip will certinly be watched by many of us who wish we had the time or the balls to take on such a challange. Having said that I think this may be a solution to tired arms mid way...

That is going to be a serious adventure.

MY cousin gave me a book by a guy named Graham Mackintosh who walked down one side of the peninsula and back up the other side several years ago.

The book my cousin gave me was actually his second one where he walked down the middle of the peninsula to Loreto with a donkey. If the first one is anything like the second, he will have a lot of practical statements about how he did things, in addition to little exposes on Baja California history.

Good luck.

I love to see people with dreams but would suggest you do a trip out around sci and cat and back first....your gonna need to cross at about punta baja to punta eugenia to shorten the trip and that sci round trip is about the same distance.When and if you can stay in the yak that long and paddle that far then go for it.

Dave, If the bad weather doesn't put a stop to your trip, Mr montezuma revenge will

Soon or later, your gonna have to drink water from the local towns.

You don't want monty paying you a visit in the middle of the ocean. Its tough paddling on your knees. Don't ask me how i know. Be safe and have fun!
